Why do some people rise to the occasion under pressure while others tighten up? Whether it's a big presentation or a job interview, pressure has a way of making us tighten up and second-guess ourselves. We think the goal is to eliminate stress. But what if that's actually not the best approach? In this conversation, I sit down with performance expert Steve Magness to talk about why pressure isn't the enemy and how the best performers learn to use it to their advantage. We talk about the difference between stress and pressure and the practical tools you can use to quiet your inner critic and perform at your best when the stakes are high. By the end of this conversation, you'll think differently about pressure and walk away with practical strategies you can use the next time you find yourself in a high-pressure moment.
